Written questions by Cartlidge.

What assessment he has made of the adequacy of the UK's commitment to enhanced NATO air policing patrols.

The UK remains fully committed to NATO air policing. The RAF has deployed to Poland, Estonia, Iceland, Lithuania and Romania, securing Allied airspace and playing a key role in NATO’s deterrence and defence.Along with other European Allies, the UK provides our P8 maritime reconnaissance aircraft and Rivet Joint surveillance aircraft to NATO’s BALTIC SENTRY maritime operation throughout the Baltic Sea. The objective of this to detect and understand sabotage against undersea infrastructure, as well play a critical part in deterrence.

What his planned timetable is for deploying Typhoons to Poland.

RAF Typhoons from RAF Lossiemouth landed in Poland on 25 March 2025 as part of NATO’s commitment to maintaining regional security and airspace integrity. As the air policing role develops, further announcements will be made. We have a strong and broad defence relationship with Poland and in January 2025, our Prime Ministers announced work on a Defence and Security Treaty.
